Herb of the Day: Fennel

Herb of the Day: Fennel

Posted by TriLight Health on Sep 10th 2020

Fennel is an old favorite used for culinary purposes and by herbalists. Typically, herbalists use the seed, but the leaves and flowers are occasionally used, and chefs use the plant's bulb. One of the most distinguishing features of fennel is the flavor, which is often compared to licorice. The fresh green fennel fronds make a delicious tea, which can be enjoyed as a digestive boost after a meal. Fennel is high in magnesium and is often added as a vitamin and mineral boost, as it contains many vitamins & minerals.
